Mr. J. P. Curran is about leav-
ing for Denison, Texas, where he
will take the management of an
opera company and travel over
Texas and other states, giving
the people the advantage of his
years of experience in making
entertainment for others, and his
successful management of such
companies. Mr. Curran is a vet-
eran in the theatrical business,
and always makes good.
Many of the merchants com-
plain that business is dull for the
season, failing to remember that
the rains prevented the farmers
from picking their cotton, and
that the crop is extra large, and
must be gathered while the sun
shines or it will be lost. . When
the farmers are busy with their
crops it is a>£‘mighty good sign”
that the merchant will have his
busy spell later in the season,
Just be patient.
“The Texas Rangers” had a
full house Monday night and
presented an unusually good
show. The costumes were at-
tractive and the acting good.
The play, founded as it is, on
Texas history, was all the more
enjoyed on that account, and the
Library association is . $10.00
ahead on the rent proposition,
Col. and Mrs. C. R. Hubbard
came home Monday from the
fair at San Antonio, where they
spent some days pleasantly with
relatives. Mr. Hubbard says
San Antonio is growing more
rapidly than any city in Texas,
but that the fair did not come up
to his expectations. He will also
attend the Dallas fair, as he* is a
great believer in Texas and in
the good stock always shown at
the fairs.

Caro Hallmark’s team became
frightened at a train at 2 o’clock
Tuesday afternoon and ran away,
taking a course up ' Third street
from the Spurlin wagon yard,
running over the fire plug at the
Higdon-Clements corner knock-
ing it down and cutting off the
water supply, ran into a team of
mules, broke a wagon tongue be-
longing to another man, and in-
jured one person only slightly.
Fortunately no great damage was
done. Corn is cheap this year
and most of the teams are spir-
ited.
Had.A Close Call.
Mrs. Ada L Croom, the widely known
proprietor of the Croom hotel, Vaughn,
Miss., says: For several months I suf-
fered with a severe cough, and con
sumption seemed to have its grip on me
when a friend recommended Dr. King’s
New Discovery. • I began takingit, and
three bottles effected a complete cure.”
The fame of this life-saving cough and
cold remedy, and lung and throat healer
is world-wide. Sold at the Lion drug-
store. 50c and $1. Trial bottle free.

Would Mortgage the Farm.
A farmer on Rural Route 2, Empire,
Ga., W. A. Floyd by name, -says:
‘‘Bucklen’s Arnica Salve cured the two
worst sores I ever saw—one on my
hand and one on my leg. It is worth
more than its weight in gold. I would
not be without it if I had to mortgage
the farm to get it.” Only 25c at the
Liou drugstore.
A little ride to the country will
show the townsman that the
roads near Lampasas are in
jnuch better condition than they
were a few years ago, most of the
bad places having been thorough-
ly graded and gravelled, so that
the rains, no matter how heavy,
pass off to the side of the road,
leaving the bed in fine condition.
The man who desires to market
his crop in Lampasas finds no
difficulty in hauling all he can
put on his wagon. The commis-
sioners, especially Messrs. W. W.
Morriss v and J. H. H. Berry,
have done some excellent road
work near Lampasas, and they
deserve all honor for their good
work.
There was special music at the

Attend to Your Liver.
No organ in the human body can
give as many different kinds'of trouble
as the liver when it is not right. Sim-
mons’ Liver purifier makes it right and
keeps it so.
Hope and Enthusiasm.
The Panola Watchman is al-
ways saying something good and
every issue contains excellent
advice of some nature. . This
week Editor Park gives the bus-
iness men a few pointers and
which are too good to pass up.
In fact they are applicable to
most any town and might be of
worth to Nacogdoches folk:
.“More towns die for want of
confidence on the part of business
men and lack of public spirit
than any other cause. When a
man in search of a home or a
business location goes into a
town and finds everything brim
full of hope and enthusiasm of
the prospects of the place, and
all earnestly at. work to build it
up, he soon becomes imbued with
the same spirit, and as a result
he drives down stakes and goes
to work with the same interest.
When, however, he goes id. a
town where everyone expresses
doubt and apprehension for the
future prosperity of the place,
moping about and indulging in
mournful complaints, he natur-
ally feels that it is no place for
him, and he at once shakes
the dust off his feet while he pulls'
out with all possible speed for’
some other place. Consequently
try to make a liye, enterprising
town out of the town in which
you live. When you are work-
ing for or saying a good thing
for your town you are accomp-
lishing all the more for yourself.”
—Nacogdoches Sentinel.
